Favorite links 3/12

Finished my half marathon today – I will post about it sometime next week, but in the meantime you can follow me on Instagram to see how it went. So, I’ve had writer’s block this week, and I’ve also felt like I’ve been hopping from one task to another every 30 minutes at school and work – does anyone else find that the latter tends to cause the former? On the plus side, this link roundup might be my favorite so far. Hope you enjoy them as well!

My short answer to “what do you do” is environmental engineering; but more specifically, my research area is bioremediation, aka using microorganisms to clean up bad stuff in the environment. Did you know that for almost any pollutant you can think of, there is some bacteria, somewhere, that can “eat” it? Even plastic.
